Anyone here do Crossfit?

- are there many UK comps?
- is it for ergers who do weights, or bodybuilders who do some erging? (most of the online vids would suggest the latter)

It is a sport on its own, certainly not for BB, also used for a general fitness. Outside of the us its still small. Strenght and weightlifting technique are the most important factors. I my gym its also used for general group training, this is very low key work.
